Rainforests aren't just for jungles, and British Columbia isn't all along the ocean. On this episode of CG Kids, Sid and Idee head to the interior of British Colombia to search for the mysterious interior rainforest. Along the way, they meet Aaron Whitley from Ride and Seek Adventures, who shows them how to mountain bike on Nelson's world famous trails along with our kid correspondents and expert riders, Garet and Michelle. Next, our fearless adventurers head underground into the Cody Caves where Leone and Hunter show Sid and Idee how spelunking is really done and they answer the age-old question, where do giant spiders hibernate? Finally, CG Kids gets a rare glimpse at the threatened interior rainforest with Valhalla Wilderness Society Director, Craig Pettit. Sid and Idee learn how to determine the age of an ancient, living tree without causing it harm, and how the temperate rainforest can be found so far inland. It's bikes, caves and endangered giants on this episode of CG Kids!
